Message

At OpenAsset, I moved from Agile Delivery Manager to Engineering Operations Lead after driving delivery improvements and aligning OKRs across cross-functional teams. I introduced Scrum across Engineering and rolled out Confluence, Jira Product Discovery and Jira Plans to improve visibility and coordination.

I’ve managed and coached globally distributed engineering teams, led delivery from planning through release, and worked to remove blockers while keeping leadership informed on status and risks. Earlier, at Vonage, I launched a Newcomer Booklet adopted into official onboarding; at IBM, I managed 45 employees across delivery operations.
